MG-63 Cell Line:

Sarcoma is a cancer of bones and connective tissues that is quite rare in adults. However, it comprises approximately 20% of all childhood cancers, as indicated by the Sarcoma Foundation of America (SFA). Human cell lines are valuable preclinical models for sarcoma research as well as for evaluation of the efficacy or toxicity of potential drug candidates. The MG-63 cell line was established from the bone tissue of a 14-year-old Caucasian male with osteosarcoma. This cell line exhibits fibroblast morphology and shows high levels of interferon production when induced by cycloheximide, actinomycin D, and polyinosinic-polycytidylic acid. These MG-63 cells express TGF-beta RI and TGF-beta RII receptors and could be useful as a transfection host in different types of biomedical research applications. The MG-63 cell line is hypotriploid with a modal chromosome number of 66. Altogen Biosystems provides high-efficiency transfection reagent kits for the MG-63 osteosarcoma cell line.

Data:

Figure 1. siRNAs targeting Lamin A/C mRNA or non-silencing control siRNA were transfected into MG63 cells following the recommended protocol. At 48 hours post-transfection the cells were analyzed by qRT-PCR for Lamin A/C gene expression levels. 18S rRNA levels were used to normalize the Lamin A/C data. Values are normalized to untreated sample. Data are means ± SD (n=4).

Figure 2. Protein expression of Lamin A in MG-63 cells. DNA plasmid expressing Lamin A or siRNA targeting Lamin A were transfected into MG-63 cells following Altogen Biosystems transfection protocol. At 72 hours post-transfection the cells were analyzed by Western Blot for protein expression levels (normalized by total protein, 10 µg of total protein loaded per each well). Untreated cells used as a negative control.
